Hello There,

I forgot my password of my admin account and there is no way on earth i am able to recover it. Since in the log in screen i am able to see guest user and other account. How on earth do i recover the password? , since i have tried all the steps from Command S to Command R. Desperate help required. Nothing seems to be working out.
